Motorcycles transport

Motorcycles and
scooters are not only valuable, but also
difficult to secure while being
shipped. Though, it turns out that everything depends on the way we do it and how
much previous experience with shipping we had gathered. It is doable
to ship a motorcycle or a scooter without difficulties,
no doubts about that. The way you will
secure it depends on the type of shipment.
Owing to some helpful advice you
could prevent any scratches, and dents that
are likely to happen when a moped or motorbike is not properly secured.

When you are
shipping your motorcycle
on a trailer you will need 4 strapping belts to
strap it down. If you use a trailer which is
dedicated for motorcycles or scooters, it already
has been equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike.
In this case you will need only 2 belts. It's neccessary to use
a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed
one will not open up accidentaly during the
transport.

It is also worth looking at
the sharp edges or elements that may
possibly cut the belts and make it
impossible to safely transport your motorcycle.
It's also doable to transport a
motorcycle inside a truck. The protection and
equipment necessary to keep the
motorbike standing safely in one
place will not vary too much from other ways mentioned before.
One thing that should be taken under consideration is the installation of the side pads to
protect the insides of the truck
and other objects that might be transported just next to the motorbike.

There are also platforms that
hooked to a truck or another vehicle, can help
you ship your motorcycle not occupying
the whole space in the truck.

Do not forget to check with the transport company if
the equipment they provide will be sufficient to ship
your motorcycle. For instance, using a wooden
platform for lifting your scooter and
loading it in a truck could be dangerous to people providing
the service or pedestrians passing by, but could also cause serious
damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.
